Few Things I Learned In Warsaw Zoo Movie
Hitler said adults couldn't have milk and adults were anyone over six months
ghettos had 100ft walls topped off with barbed wire.
Nazis liquidated ghettos
Jan Zabinski saved over 300 Jews in his zoo

Paperclips
the paperclip is a symbol of the holocaust because Norwegians wore them around their lapels
in World War II as a silent protest against Nazis occupation.
What I Learned In Paper Clips
they put 100 in the small rail car
butterflies are a symbol of freedom
the school was trying to collect 15,000,000 paper clips
they wanted to put 11,000,000 paper clips in the rail car
the school made a monument to honor the Jews who were in the holocaust

My Personal Feelings Of The Holocaust
I thought the Holocaust was a sad period of time. Hitler killed over 11 million people. I think it was dumb that Hitler didn't like Jews because he got rejected from art school and because they had blond hair and blue eyes. Why would someone have that much hatred to kill 11 million people
